CLEANING THE LENS

To clean the lens, use an air blower to remove dirt such as dust or sand. 

Then gently wipe the lens tissue (included) on the lens.

CLEANING THE CAMERA

Gently wipe the camera with a soft, dry cloth. DO NOT use thinners or other 

cleaners to clean the camera, these products can cause damage.

CLEANING THE WATERPROOF HOUSING

It is important that the rubber gasket is always clean to ensure a 

perfect seal. 

Rinse the housing in fresh water and shake it to dry. Do not 

use a cloth to dry the seal, as lint may settle there and compromise the  

effectiveness of it. After using the housing in salt water, rinse it in fresh wa-

ter and dry it. The salt can build up on the seal and the buttons may rust.

STORAGE

If the camera will not be used for more than a month, the camera should 

be stored properly. The storage temperature should be between -10 °C 

and + 60 °C (+14°F and +140 °F).

Note:

 It is important to follow these tips, because the warranty does 

not cover any GG Telecom products which has been subjected to water  

damage due to user error. See p.23 for more information on the warranty.

WARNINGS

•  Never place the camera inside or above a heating device such as a mi-

crowave oven, a stove or a radiator. This could lead to overheating or 

the deformity of materials, or even cause a fire or explosion.

•  Protect the lens from fingerprints and scratches using the waterproof 

housing. 

•  Do not expose the memory card to extreme temperatures (below -20 

°C or above 50 °C). This may cause the memory cards to malfunction.

damage the camera and the memory card.

•  Do not put the memory card into contact with liquids, dust or foreign 

bodies. If the memory card is dirty, clean with a soft cloth before you 

insert it into the camera.

•  Do  not  place  the  camera  on  flammable  surfaces  such  as  bedding,  

blankets, carpets, or electric blankets for extended periods.

•  The recommended operating temprature is between -20 °C to + 70 °C
